A major force in world literature, Franz Kafka’s disturbing work fused elements of realism and the fantastic – often featuring lone individuals crushed by incomprehensible bureaucratic powers. Short story writer Daithí Ó Muirí, whose own work explores Kafkaesque situations and themes has translated Kafka into Irish, working from original German texts. Shadows from Prague will feature Daithí reading these versions to musical accompaniment from Seán Mac Erlaine (saxophone, clarinet, sound effects), and on-screen imagery and shadow puppets created by Niamh Lawlor of Púca Puppets.
